great example of how we're leaning into open source and open standards — and making sure they are secure

Most current crypto VCs are clueless about everything, from crypto, to business, to building companies, to economics. They just won the lottery when they bought BTC or ETH cheap, some years ago. Take their money, but not their advice.

Ran the New York City marathon a few weeks back, but finally bought a photo on Black Friday. It was a beautiful morning, not too cold. Took dang near forever to finish!

Favorite part was running in Williamsburg. It was a massive daytime rave lol for an hour. Love this city! 🏃 🏅 🏁 ✅

happy thanksgiving! 🦃  grateful for the insane neynar team

worked late into the night yesterday on v1 of a contract that puts neynar user scores onchain; all addresses with scores > 0.95 can now be read directly on base mainnet

useful for allowlists and protects against bots e.g. restricting trading or minting in the first 2 mins to the creator address + farcaster users in the 95th and higher percentile

1. why only > 0.95 ?
- we'll put all users scores onchain next week, wanted to start small with the contract deployment and iterate based on feedback

2. will scores stay updated onchain?
- yes they will reflect our APIs, we'll keep them up to date onchain

3. is a subscription needed to read them?
- not atm, any smart contract can read them

4. is anything changing about scores as a result of this?
- no, we will continue iterating on the scoring model overall, this brings them onchain

there's more coming 🪐

Shout out to the Clanker team for being open when receiving frustrated feedback.

It's easy to seize up when someone is having negative emotions with your product. It's easy to mix up the thing you've poured love into with yourself. It's really important we builders all practice making that distinction.

Norway Shrugged 🇳🇴🤷

My story recently racked up over 100 million views on this website.

As a startup founder in Norway I was facing an unrealized gains tax bill many times higher than my net income. No politician ever told me how I'm supposed to pay the bill, but I got put up on the Socialist Left party's "Wall of Shame" for speaking up.

With 100 of the top 400 tax payers leaving in just a couple of years present day Norway has chilling similarities to Ayn Rands 1957 dystopia "Atlas Shrugged".

I've written a post about why my motherland, one of the richest countries in the world, is facing an entrepreneurial exodus, how we got here and what the future might hold.
